• Charli XCX Performs 'Need Ur Luv' on 'Letterman' with Rostam Batmanglij [WATCH]

    On last night's Dec. 16 episode of "The Late Show with David Letterman," Charli XCX dropped by to perform her glam-rock inspired track "Need Ur Luv" from her new album "Sucker," featuring Vampire Weekend's Rostam Batmanglij — the song's co-writer — on piano. Charli spends most of the performance singing and dancing from the top of Batmanglij's piano, offering quite a unique spin on what could have been just another typical late night performance. You can check out Charli XCX's performance of "Need Ur Luv" featuring Vampire Weekend's Rostam Batmanglij from "The Late Show with David Letterman" here — and notice how Letterman does not attempt to pronounce "Batmanglij":
  • Charli XCX Shares Colorful "Breaking Up" Music Video From Upcoming Album 'Sucker' [WATCH]

    British pop star Charli XCX has shared the music video for her song "Breaking Up," which you can check out. The BRTHR-directed clip finds Charli breaking up with her clueless boyfriend and then hitting the bowling alley to pick up guys and play a show with her band (this must be Asbury Lanes, then). The video is shot with a bizarre combination of low-budget graininess and a bright neon color palette, which gives it a visual aura vaguely reminiscent of a grindhouse horror flick from the '70s.
  • Charli XCX Shares Colorful 'London Queen' Lyric Video

    Two weeks ago, British synthpop singer Charli XCX shared her punky new single "London Queen," and today she has premiered the song's lyric video over at "Nylon." The video's cheap, colorful animation is reminiscent of those old point-and-click computer games from the late 1990s like "Backyard Baseball," but it fits in well with the song's hyperactive melody. The lyrics are pretty confusing, though, so if someone can explain what it means to "feel like J.F.K." for "driving on the wrong side of the road," it would be greatly appreciated.
